Re: C'MON SURF BANDS - PLEASE HELP !

viktor423 - 29 Jul 2004 15:13:15

We'd help you out, but we can't play at Galapagos anymore because I
had a big fight with the sound guy the last time we played there, it
almost came to blows, so we're not welcome there anymore. He was a
real arrogant prick towards me, and I wouldn't take it, so a big
problem occured at soundcheck. He was telling our drummer not to hit
the drums so hard and wouldn't let me turn my amp past "3" because he
said I was too loud for the room, and insisted on putting me through
the PA even though I asked him not to mic my amp. It's a very large
room and I never had this problem in smaller venues with my amp on
"10". After this inccident I swore off playing in places that treat
us like shit ( there are lots of them! ). Hope you can find someone
anyway, and cheers for trying to get things going, not many people
do. Good luck. Viktor
